Whitening basics
How does teeth whitening work?
Whitening is used to describe several different products and treatments. Knowing what each one actually does helps you compare like with like.

Bleaching and surface cleaning are different
Peroxide bleaching changes the appearance of stains within natural teeth. A stain-removal toothpaste primarily works on surface staining. These are different processes, so an everyday toothpaste and a whitening appointment should not be judged as interchangeable products.
Ask what your appointment includes
At JayWhite, Triple includes a consultation, whitening session and aftercare guidance. Premium includes two Triple visits a week apart. Ask about the product, the steps during your appointment and how your starting point will be recorded. A treatment name alone does not explain the process.
Use a specific comparison checklist
Write down the full price, visit count, deposit, product information and follow-up arrangements for each option you are considering. Include the time you need to travel and return for another appointment. This makes the decision more practical than comparing a single advertised shade number.
Start with your own questions
Explain what you hope to change and whether you have whitened before. Bring product names or packaging if you used a home kit. Read the treatment comparison below to see how the JayWhite options differ before selecting dates.
